My baby got key! - Page 4 - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

Miss the car so much.

3rd day at bodyshop. The price is $900 (not $750, the boss didn't want to do for $750). It would be ready to pich up on Thu or Fri.

I didn't go through insurance (deductible is $1000) because the guy at bodyshop said that they will pay it but they will put in the car record that the car had been through an accident, not just keyed and when I decide to trade in or sell, the value of the car will go down.

I have locked my garage door since that day and asked the other owner that shares the garage to do that for me too. First thing when I get the car is installing the dashboard camera.

It's not jealousy. Pure random vandals I'd say. My brother got his Yaris keyed for no apparent reason. Pretty sure no one is jealous of Yaris drivers...

Unfortunately this is nothing new and isn't likely to stop until we are all monitored 24/7, which nobody sane wants.
40 years ago my brother was visiting our sister in the hospital and parked all the way across the lot in an empty area. Somebody drove all the way across the lot just to ram his 74 Pantera.

This is about the 10th time I have seen someone be the victim of low life pieces of shit. All you can do is get it repainted. Now, I am about to move in with my fiancee and she does not have a garage. I am currently garaging the FRS. I found a 5 layer all weather car cover with lock on it. It has fleece inner lining to protect the paint, breathable layers, and excellent protection from the elements. This will be my "garage" until we move into a new house.

If anyone that is fking with our cars is lurking on this forum. You better think twice about fking with my car. I actually always watching and waiting now that this seems to be a growing epidemic. If I catch you or record you to find you. I am going to bust your head and face wide open. I will even fire a shot into your leg and then beat the shit out of you. I don't fk around when it comes to my baby. I am by no means a thug or a gangster. I am simply a man that takes care of business.

Send us pics of your repainted ride. It will look great! Love the pearl! Wish I got it now.
